Hi, I'm SavarnaRose, WAHM of 3. I've been married for 15 years. I now weigh double what I did when I got married. I joke to my dh that I'm twice the woman I was then!

I have most of the usual problems with being this large; diabetes, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, fatigue.

I've been doing a lot of reading. Right now I think I'm going to do the South Beach diet. It's not anything like I thought it was. I thought it was another low-carb diet. I've been reading about the low GI diets and it seems this one has the most info.

Thanks. This seems like a great place. Wish I'd found it a long time ago!

Bright Blessings,

SavarnaRose

Hi there and . . . glad you found us.

You might be interested in taking a look at our Diabetes Support Forum and the Sugar Shakers Forum (which is branching out to encompass as many of the lesser known GI/GL plans as possible; but right now is mainly sugar Busters which is probably the first low GI plan to become popular). And . . . just coincidentally, I just posted an interesting little article in connection with sleep apnea in the main Dieting with Obstacles Forum.
